DiGiCo QUANTUM 225 DIGITAL MIXING CONSOLE, Compact and Robust

DiGiCo QUANTUM 225 DIGITAL MIXING CONSOLE, Compact and Robust

The DiGiCo Quantum 225 is a 72 channel mixing console with 25 physical faders and a 1 x 17” LCD high-resolution touchscreen. Like its larger counterpart, the Quantum 338, the Quantum 225 offers all of the Quantum features plus new design features and enhancements in a smaller format console

Following on from Quantum 338, Quantum 225 brings the power of Quantum in a compact and robust work surface. Quantum 225 incorporates all of the new design features introduced in 2020 with the Quantum 338, and of course, uses three large-scale seventh-generation FPGAs to continue the unrivaled Quantum legacy. The console merges tried and tested workflows with immense processing muscle, bold innovation, and all of the Quantum features, giving you the ultimate toolset. Quantum 225 brings a 17-inch, 1000 nit, high brightness multitouch screen with both a meter bridge and soft quick-select buttons for quick and intuitive operation. 41 individual TFT LCDs displaying channel information and metering, bank information, macros, and more guide you immediately to the controls you need. Plus, 25 100mm touch-sensitive faders in two banks of 12 plus a dedicated user-assignable master fader with high-resolution metering.

But there’s more… The defining feature of the Quantum 225 is the ability to customize the left worksurface with the Mounting Bracket. Mount a laptop for creative control, or a KLANG: controller for immersive control. You could even mount an extra screen to show your KLANG: app, plugin computer, console overview screen, or it could even display the channel screen for your left bank of faders, transforming your Quantum 225 into a dual-screen console at an unbelievable price point! With a maximum of 72 input channels with 36 busses and a 12 x 12 matrix, all with full channel processing, Quantum 225 brings Quantum to a wider user base. Also included as standard are Mustard Processing channel strips, Spice Rack plugin style native FPGA processing options, Nodal Processing, and True Solo.
